Usage Guidelines

IPv6 defines new DNS record types to resolve queries for domain names to IPv6 addresses, as well as IPv6 addresses to domain names. RUCKUS devices running IPv6 software support AAAA DNS records, which are defined in RFC 1886.

AAAA DNS records are analogous to the A DNS records used with IPv4. They store a complete IPv6 address in each record. AAAA records have a type value of 28.

The no form of the command removes the DNS server address.

Examples

The following example configures an IPv6 DNS server address. 

device(config)# ipv6 dns server-address 2001:DB8::1
